Maybe he'll be satisfied with them
some day, same as yourself, lad.

:18:07
Hello, Dad! Did you have a good time?
:18:10
Good as a holiday it was. Pity it weren't
licensed. Anyone seen owt of our Joe?

:18:16
There's been no sign of him.
:18:19
You off to Tynecastle, Davey? Best of luck,
lad. I've got great faith in you.

:18:24
- Thanks, Slogger.
- Bye, Martha.

:18:28
None of my family needed no college
education. They was good mining stock.

:18:34
Same as I thought your father were
before he set himself up against pit.

:18:39
You know they jailed me for nowt.
They got their knife into me over the strike.

:18:45
That don't surprise me. And I noticed
no one came forward to stand up for thee.

:18:51
It done one good thing -
left them free to settle strike.

:18:56
Got it over before I was out, eh?
:18:59
- Aye. How's your cough been, Father?
- This cough will never kill me.

:19:04
- I don't want you down Scupper Flats.
- Don't worry about that.

:19:08
You've got to think about making your way.
:19:12
You're going to do something
about this industry.

:19:16
- The men have great hopes of you, lad.
- They don't talk like it.

:19:20
They think it all the same.
What time you leaving?

:19:25
- Now you're back, the next train.
- I'll come with you.

:19:31
Thank you, Martha.
:19:34
- We'll be getting along, shall we, Davey?
- Aye.

:19:39
- So long, Hughie.
- Good luck. I'll be in Tynecastle soon.

:19:45
So long.
:19:50
Well, I'm off, Mother.
:19:53
Aye.
:19:56
Don't forget to keep my pit clothes
waiting for me.
